Who got a nice labor day ride in today?

Such a beautiful day here in Richmond. Not too hot, not too humid and sunny. There was a bit of wind, but the day was too nice to care about it.

Started out by warming up by taking a slow, relaxed pace for about 10 miles, then switching to a brisk pace for another 10. Then I spent about 25 more miles just cruising around Richmond's southside.

No flats, only one motorist that yelled and the most serious problem was having chain suck and getting the chain stuck on one of the bolts that secures the small chain ring to the crank. It had backed out a bit, and some work with an allen key fixed that. Many thanks to the two cyclists who offered help, I appreciated it. I also want to thank the little kid and his father that set up a lemonade stand to get donations for Katrina victims. The energy gained from the cookies and lemonade helped me on my way home.

So, does anyone else want to share their ride?
